What's on your menu today (Photo Friday) RNYers?

Good Friday to you menu folks! We've made it to Friday again and the thread is open for your photos. I only have pics from my surgeon's appointment last week, but post whatever inspires you! We love to see your pictures!

As most of you know, I love to go to my deep water aerobics class. We were off for 2 weeks while the pool was cleaned and rehab'ed and I was missing my pool time. I thought that class restarted this week, so I went to the pool last evening ready for class. I got there and found out that class doesn't start until next week. Boo hiss! I went ahead and did some laps anyway, but I really miss the class and seeing my fellow swimmers. Oh well, back in the routine again.

QOTD: I value the time in my week when I can do something creative. Since surgery, I have started painting again, and while I'm not good, the experience is lots of fun! I also love to knit, crochet and spin. What creative outlets to you have? Do you do something for pleasure that brightens your day and add value to your life? I think that my creative time is particularly important to me because I don't have that element in my job and I need to see some inspiration to feel fulfilled.

Menu:

Breakfast: hard boiled egg, 2 oz ham

Snack: Fuzzy Navel protein shake

Lunch: TJ's chicken sausage, Hodge Podge veggies

Snack: 2 oz turkey breast

Dinner: Shrimp, broccoli

Exercise: long walk

Good Morning Janet and Menu Family!

QOTD: I was an art major and specialized in watercolor painting. I haven't done any paintings for several years and need to get back to painting. Here is an example of one of my watercolor paintings. I also like other arts and crafts and creative outlets.

My other picture is of Tippy cuddling with me. It's not a good picture of me, (my hair is messy and I don't have any make-up on), but she was so sweet snuggled up to me. (Yes, Tippy needs to go on a diet ... LOL!)

Accountability: Yesterday: Protein - 70, Calories - 955, Carbs - 69.

B: prosciutto & mozzarella sticks

L: hamburger with melted cheese

D: Not sure yet, need to go to the store

S: light & fit Greek yogurt, prosciutto & mozzarella sticks

E: Still not able to take the dogs for a walk - stupid back pain. Going to Walmart today so I hope I'll be able to manage to walk around Walmart without too much pain.

Have a FANTASTIC day everyone!

~ Karen

I love your watercolor! And Tippy is a sweetheart!

Thank you, Janet!

Oh my, that painting is stunning. I love the puppy!! You should do a painting of Tippy and Blossom :)

Thank you, Meggles! Yes, I need to do a painting of Tippy and Blossom.

Wow that's very detailed for watercolor

Thank you, Cynthia. Yes, I paint very detailed for watercolor. My instructor said it was unusual for watercolor, but that it worked for me so it was okay.

My thoughts exactly! The detail in her hair is AMAZING!!!

WOW Karen! Tha****ercolor is wonderful!
